Role of PET/CT in muscle-invasive bladder cancer.
Review in Translational andrology and urology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 15 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The purpose of this study covered the diagnostic accuracy and usefulness of positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) imaging in muscle invasive bladder cancer patients through previously published literature. Through 30 September, 2019, the PubMed database was searched for eligible articles that evaluated PET/CT imaging in bladder cancer patients. In general, FDG PET/CT, the most commonly used PET/CT imaging, does not show good performance for the detection of primary lesions; however, according to the literature it could accurately assess pelvic lymph node (LN) status better than other imaging technologies and it was especially helpful in determining extra-pelvic recurrences. More recently, non-FDG PET/CT imaging, such as C-11 acetate and C-11 choline, has been introduced. Although further research is required, preliminary results show the potential of these techniques to overcome the drawbacks of FDG. This concise study will overview the role of PET/CT when treating muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC).
